This is not exactly a new development, but it appears that the pope's health has taken a severe turn for the worse recently. During his last prolonged health scare I created this post which includes links to a variety of things I've written related on the process of electing a pope and some of the men who are among the candidates to succeed John Paul II. Should events warrant it, it may be of use to you as you try to understand news stories that come out in the coming days. And as events warrant it, I will of course write a great deal more on this topic.
